161 A.D.2d 450

The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v Jorge Soto, Appellant.

Judgment, Supreme Court, New York County (Clifford A. Scott, J.), rendered September 15, 1988, convicting defendant, upon his plea of guilty, of burglary in the second degree and sentencing him to an indeterminate term of imprisonment of from 5 to 10 years, unanimously affirmed.

We are unpersuaded that the sentence imposed was unduly harsh or severe. Taking into account, "among other things, the crime charged, the particular circumstances of the individual before the court and the purpose of a penal sanction”, we perceive no abuse of discretion warranting a reduction in sentence (People v Farrar, 52 NY2d 302, 305).

*451Further, defendant was sentenced in accordance with his plea bargain and within statutory guidelines. "Having received the benefit of his bargain, defendant should be bound by its terms” (People v Felman, 141 AD2d 889, 890, lv denied 72 NY2d 918). Concur—Kupferman, J. P., Sullivan, Rosenberger, Ellerin and Smith, JJ.
